Ugandan Chapati Flatbread

A friend from Uganda showed me how to make an African flatbread called chapati. I rarely use recipes & she doesn't use them at all but for the sake blogging I've googled a chapati recipe that was very similar to the chapati I made. If you're interested, here's the link to the one I found.

CHAPATI (My version of it anyway.)

Granted they weren't perfectly round but they were good nonetheless.

2 cups of Duram Atta flour (or any flour of your choice)

1 tsp. of Adobo (or salt to taste)

1-2 tsp. of Chief Head Curry (or whatever flavors you like)

1/2 cups of finely diced onions (optional)

3/4 cups of water

oil (for frying)

Adobo

1, Knead all the ingredients together. The dough should stick together into a ball BUT should be dry enough so that it doesn't stick to your skin. If it's to dry add a little more water. If the dough is sticking to your skin add a little more flour.
2, Divide the dough into about seven balls.
3, Oil the surface for rolling. Roll with a rolling pin until thin.
4, Fry in a skillet until brown.
Enjoy.
